One of Canada’s 35 licensed medical marijuana producers has big plans for the future – plans the size of 10 football fields.
That’s how big an automated greenhouse in Alberta will be once Vancouver-based Aurora Cannabis is finished building it out, the Calgary Sun reported. The grow will be roughly 600,000 square feet, with the capacity to produce more than 154,000 pounds of MMJ.
Aurora Cannabis said it believes the Canadian MMJ market will be able to handle the supply it plans to produce, given that it estimates demand to be increasing 10% every month.
The company already runs a 55,200-square-foot-grow northwest of Calgary.
